Papa Was A Rolling Stone

Actually, he most definitely was not, and I don't think he even liked them that much, but my dearest daddy most definitely WAS way into music as have I always been (and also why I will always cling to the magical memories of that ultimate K-Tel 70's Mood Music collection that, alas, I couldn't afford as a tot, and by the time Columbia records was just giving them away, the K-Tel was no more).

I digress. I really only have one question: Am I the only person who has no clue about this Adele person, who she is, where she came from, and what the hell she's rolling is and why is it so deep? Is it a big pile of shit, like I would buy from the alpacas? The only reason I even know about the deep rolling song is because they used it on The Voice (have I mentioned my fascination with Adam Levine, tats and all, is even stronger than my fascination with alpacas?). I pride myself on being quite hip when it comes to pop culture. Just ask my kids. They're especially fond of when I play their music as loud as I can. Even more fun when it's picking them up somewhere socially. I love just about all music, but for the life of me I don't. Get. Adele. The last singer who had me this perplexed was that disgustingly creepy walking herpes virus, Amy Winehouse. Yes, I know I'm being mean to a dead person, but I think she's actually like that Keith dude who IS from the Rolling Stones and really is already dead, just like Amy Winehouse was. Is. Has been. Whatever, they're all British and they're all rotting and gross, but if he wanted to, I think it would be okay.

And speaking of British and Rolling Stones, that takes us right back to Adam Levine and movin' like Jagger, which he most certainly does, and he's definitely not rolling in anything disgusting.
